If you treat the contract at an end, we will promptly return all payments made under the contract.

If any Goods form a commercial unit ( a unit is a commercial unit if division of the unit would materially impair the value of the goods or the character of the unit) you cannot cancel or reject the Order for some of those Goods without also cancelling or rejecting the Order for the rest of them.
